Access 2000/2003 - linking to a form in a .mde

N

I have a .mde and a .mdb given to me. The .mde contains a form which the
..mdb somehow has use of, but the form is not contained in the .mdb. I have
another .mdb which also needs to have use of this form. Since .mde forms
cannot be exported/imported, and the link manager only allows linking to
tables, apparently there is some other way to link to this form. How is that
accomplished in Access2003?

The MDE is probably a code library. The MDB has a reference to the MDE and
calls up the form using a function or sub in the MDE. You would need to
duplicate the reference and whatever code is being run in the MDB to open
the form.
